Comic Information

Yes, Flanders, There Is a Santa Claus is a Simpsons Comics story that appears in The Simpsons Winter Wingding #3. The comic was later reprinted in Homer For the Holidays and The Simpsons Annual 2010.
Plot
Reverend Lovejoy visits the Kwik-E-Mart and sees that the store has the theme of Christmas everywhere. At the high mass he decides to talk about how Christmas has lost its meaning and asks the congregation what Christmas is all about and no one mentions Jesus, so he concludes by saying that Santa Claus does not exist. Afterwards, Marge and Homer buys ice cream for the children after they did not like what the pastor said about Santa but Bart and Lisa say that they know the truth and Lisa says she is worried about Rod and Todd. They have removed everything with Christmas and other holidays. They are depressed because Christmas has disappeared for them and Bart thinks they should bring Christmas back to them and Lisa agrees to it. On Christmas Eve Lisa and Bart tell Rod and Todd that the adults do not know anything and Santa Claus exists and they should prove it. At midnight, Lisa wakes Rod and Todd and ask them to look out and on the roof of the Simpson's house is a reindeer, which actually is Santa's Little Helper. They realize that Lisa and Bart told the truth, and they put out cookies for Santa. Rod and Todd go to bed again and Bart and Lisa go into Flanders' house to eat the treats. Meanwhile Snake, who has been stealing Christmas presents, breaks into the house (A little while earlier they met Chief Wiggum who told them about thefts in the neighborhood). Snake is dressed as Santa and Ned wakes up and is going to shoot "Santa", Rod and Todd, see that and ask him to not shoot Santa. Lisa sees everything and intervenes just before Ned is going to call the police and she talks about the symbol that Santa stands for, peace and joy, and she asks Ned to not take away the joy from his kids. Ned realizes he made a wrong decision and asks Snake to give the stolen goods to Rod and Todd, if he wants to go free. He did and Rod and Todd got Lisa and Bart's presents because Snake was in their house before but they accept it as it can sometimes be better to give than to receive. Homer comes in and tells them that Christmas is ruined as someone stole his beer.
